You're already operating from the cloud services perspective. Try 100 cloud servers is the same as 5 physical servers. Say 100 cloud servers runs your organization X dollar per month, plus the team of engineers to build out and operate there. For 1/4 of one month's cloud expense one can buy 5 servers that are the same hardware the cloud services are trickle renting you. With your month over month savings, you CAN afford those hard to find developers. Many of them are actually unemployed because everyone thinks they need to use the cloud - I've been able to pick them up for spot situations over my head for $15 an hour.
